Concept explainers
To find: The moment of inertia of 10.8kg sphere.
Answer to Problem 27P
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The mass of sphere,
The radius of sphere,
Formula used:
The moment of inertia of a solid sphere about an axis through its centre of mass is
Where
M = the total distributed mass
R = the radius of the sphere.
Calculation:
The moment of inertial of sphere when the axis of rotation is through its center
Substituting the values as shown below,
Conclusion:
The value of Moment of Inertia
